Gimme Shelter

Ooh, a storm is threatenin'
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh, I'm gonna fade away

War, children, uh-huh
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, yeah

Ooh, see the fire is sweepin'
My very street today
Burns like a red-coal carpet
Till the mad bull has lost his way

War, children
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Rape, murder
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
Rape, murder, yeah
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
Rape, murder
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
Yeah

Oh, well, a storm is threatenin'
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm gonna fade away

War, children, uh-huh
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away
War, children
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away

Oh, sisters
It's just a kiss away, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away, it's just a kiss away
Just a kiss away, kiss away, kiss away, yeah
